Assumption Church — Local services in Nashville-Davidson

While preparing for a trip to Nashville I sought out information on local parishes. While my first instinct was to go to the Cathedral I had somebody online recommend Assumption because of the 8:30am Latin Mass. I definitely have a spirituality best fulfilled by the Extraordinary Form, so this was music to my ears. I had assumed (ha) from the time of my planning to the time I arrived that at 8:30 there would have only been a Low Mass, but I was happily wrong. I was blessed to experience a Sung High Mass in a church filled almost to the brim - mostly with young families. The sermon was excellent as well, invigorating exposition of the readings which both informed and inspired.

It's a testament to both the fruits of pastoral work as well as the grace of God that such a wonderful community can exist. Definitely come to Assumption if you're traveling, or even if you're just interested in...

Open all day if you want to stop in a pray or light a candle for someone. The indoors of this church is amazing. The paintings of Jesus and the blessed mother Mary are breathtaking. Good place to stop in on your lunch break and just sit in peace. It also has an amazing organ and if your lucky you might hear the organist on any given day. **Update. There is a new priest at this awesome church but unfortunately he's begun locking the front doors most all of the time. Once the side door was left open and I was able to get in and enjoy my time of prayer and lighting a few candles and spent some quiet time with God. I wish the new priest would leave the church open at least a couple hours for people to come in and pray and do what they used to be able to do. It makes me sad. It's such a beautiful church that's been there for the people for...

I absolutely love this parish!! We moved here nearly 6 years ago and we have finally landed at a parish we truly feel welcomed at and are fed what our faith is really about. The community in the parish is like I've never experienced as a life long Catholic. Fr. Price has strong homilies. Fr. Kirk is precious and offers to hear confessions during mass. I'm so happy I decided to give TLM a try. Tradition to the core here. I can't wait to get into the church once tornado repairs are complete but we are so grateful we are able to celebrate the mass even with it being a packed house in a room we are fortunate to celebrate in. Those who come to Assumption are here because it is an environment of truly traditional Catholicism. I really could go on and on. I just can't say a bad thing...
